Emma Glickman grew up in Livingston, New Jersey, and has been going to Congregation Agudath Israel since her Torah for Tots days. Emma will share her personal narrative of uncovering how her grandmother and great-grandmother miraculously survived the Holocaust after being hidden by Righteous Gentiles. She weaves through twists and turns of discovering how her family managed to be among the 14 survivors of the 1,600 Jews that lived in their Polish town.
The presentation includes an 8-minute documentary trailer of Emma’s journey to Poland and finding the family that hid, fed, and saved her great-grandmother’s life. Emma went to Golda Och Academy ’14 and recently graduated from Vassar College ’18
